Protect the environment -- and look good doing it -- by storing your produce in these reusable cotton bags. They're extremely lightweight (made of cotton voile) and translucent, so you can easily see what's inside, and as a bonus, they're small enough to slip in your purse so you always have one handy. They aren't just for the market -- we store our fruits and vegetables in them at home as well rather than in a plastic bag -- they're airy so produce doesn't rot quickly. They're best for hardier produce, rather than delicate foods like greens.

Sturdy and sewn with a hemp twine drawstring, you can wash and use them over and over again. Use them for fruits and vegetables as well as lentils, beans, nuts, or grains -- or even store non-food items like toiletries or light toys to keep things in order.
